Help Buddy Fight Cancer

Donation protected
Hi everyone! My name is Roger Buddy Andrew Boane. A very long name for a tall fellow. I am 6'4" tall. I retired from law enforcement in Tennessee after 36 years. That was in 5 different departments. I was not smart enough (and no one told me) to put the money I received from retirement into a retirement fund so I would have it when i got to retirement age. So I did not.

Well, as healthy as I am, most people think I'm 45 ( I am 60), I now have melanoma cancer. Melanoma cancer is a very aggressive cancer and it is on my right heel. I have had one operation and about a third of my heel is now gone. Now after learning how to walk again, the doctors say the cancer is back after only 5 months. Like I said it is very aggressive! Because of this I have not worked in over 5 months. My wife's income and a small pension from the state of Tennessee is what we are living on right now. If it were not for my family, friends, and our church we would have lost our house and well as our 2 vehicles. We now know first hand how hard mentally, physically, and financially it is to go through this ordeal. That is why we are looking for help because as most everyone knows, that has had cancer or had a loved one with cancer, there are no programs out there to help with finances unless you are at poverty level or under.
